Publisher's presentation : At the center, Manon. Around her, a circle of characters, who project their fears, their insecurities and their fantasies on her.
They think they know her better than anyone else. They are her parents, her brothers, her high school friend, the man she loves. And they are the ones who will tell the story of the year when everything changes because sixteen-year-old Manon begins a relationship with a comic book editor thirty years her senior. She has talent. He is going to publish her. They like each other. The publisher's wife also likes her. The lines blur, everything gets mixed up: the story they live and the writing of the comic strip, the admiration, the love. And the past suddenly reappears in the present.
Manon's mother quickly refuses this so-called love, tries to protect her daughter by all means, and exposes herself to her daughter's adolescent anger. Two visions of the world clash. Two visions of love. Two views of what it means to be an adult. And between them, other voices, each with a piece of the truth.
And at the center, Manon.
